This Is How To Date In Sydney When You’re Beyond Done With Datin

Dating is weird, and especially in Sydney. You’ve got happily single people and serial daters. Then you've got those who have never been on a date, and some who are single for the first time in years. Once you’ve been on the market for a while, you can really start to lose enthusiasm. That’s why we’ve taken tips from experts and real life dating data from Inner Circle app, and put together a guide for dating when you’re just about ready to give up:

Make it easy for yourself

Like with anything in life, you can make it easy for yourself or you can make it hard. Dating is the same, but there are already a ton of tools out there to make it easier. The trick is to use them in a way that doesn’t eat up all your time or make you even more stressed.

Dating apps are exactly like this. You can use the swipe based gamified apps that seem like a time saver, but actually just eat up your work break. Or there are the ones with time limits that somehow manage to make chatting with someone cute surprisingly intense. Inner Circle gets around this by leaving all the control with you. You can pick it up when you want, put it down when you want. And thanks to the screening process that makes sure every profile is a real person, whenever you open the app there’s always a match worth your time.

The low hanging fruit can sometimes be the sweetest

To be fair, this one is just as much down to you. If you’ve been trying to date, you probably have a fair few matches on your phone that you haven’t reached out to.

Message them.

Even if you’re so beyond done with dating, starting a conversation with someone who’s literally already expressed an interest will take 2 seconds of your time. It could even lead to something good.

Meet in real life ASAP

A large part of the reason people think they are done with dating, is because they’re not actually going on dates. Sitting on your phone and messaging for 2 weeks is not dating, it’s just having a pen-pal with a good profile picture. Statistically, the ideal point to ask someone out is after 20 messages. That’s not actually that much, so instead of chatting forever about what you had for breakfast, take the lead and share a chat over dinner. Which leads us to...
